Kashan Rug

1900 - 1920
Description

When it comes to decorative workshop rugs there are a few types I tend to focus on and Kashan pieces are one of them. This one attracted me because of the strong abrash in the blue field. I think abrash creates depth in a rug which in turn can change the aspect of the room it sits in. Vintage rugs lack this magic and for me it is essential that my rugs have interest and effect. I find this one quite hypnotic to look at with the symmetrical sprays of flowers surrounding the large vases at either end. It is a finely knotted example with good colours and soft wool. A high quality piece with a strong look.

Good condition.

This Persian Kashan area rug originates from 1910 and measures 147 cm high and 102 cm wide. Made from soft wool and cotton, the hand-knotted piece displays a deep dark blue field with abrash colour variations, balanced by a vibrant red border filled with floral motifs. The decoration includes symmetrical blossom branches and large patterned vase motifs at both ends. In a contemporary home, this textile suits placement on a living room floor or study floor to add warmth and pattern. The structure shows visible wear appropriate for its vintage condition, while the edges reveal fringed ends and intricate small-scale geometric detailing within the outer guard borders.

Kashan rugs are renowned for high knot density and intricate patterns, often featuring central medallions, vase motifs, or elaborate floral sprays on deep blue or crimson fields.

Authentic Persian rugs are typically hand-knotted using hand-spun wool or silk pile woven onto a durable cotton or silk warp and weft foundation.

Look for slight variations in the weave pattern on the reverse side, soft wool pile dyed with natural vegetable dyes, and fringe that forms part of the warp structure rather than being attached afterwards.

A richly pattern-woven Persian rug anchors minimalist or contemporary spaces by adding texture, depth, and a focal colour palette beneath neutral furniture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush, rotate the rug annually to ensure even wear, and clean spills immediately by blotting with a damp cloth.
